Karl Fulves' legendary magazine Epilogue was limited to 24 issues, from 1967 to 1975, during those years some of the finest close-up magic of the period was explained in its pages. From the magazines, with permission by Karl, Aldo has selected ten packet trick routines.

• TURN'N TELL CARD MYSTERY (Ken de Courcy): A routine in three phases from a borrowed deck of cards.
• PASTEBOARD PENETRATION (Francis Haxton): A selected card placed under a magazine vanishes and reappears in the middle of the deck.

Tuch durch Mikrofonständer – Eine herrliche, visuelle Sache, bei der ein Tuch sichtbar einen Mikrofonständer durchdringt, um den es zweifach geknotet wurde. Der Knoten ist nach der Durchdringung noch im Tuch und...

DER FEDERGAG – ein herrlicher Gag, den man immer dann bringen kann, wenn ein Zuschauer eine Karte unterschreiben soll. Superleicht in der Ausführung und mit wenigen Cents Materialaufwand zu realisieren.
